It uses similar technology to a "cloaking device", but in reverse, or summink, and is therefore outwith the legal requirements of the halfbakery, but I thought I'd chance my arm.

I have also invented a gadget to stop other people wittering. It's made out of a bit of cloth and is called the "WitterNoMore". You stick it in their mouth when you've heard enough gobshite. It's a bit like a gag, except it's got brand name on it and I charge for it.
